How Two Occasions 1t Was Predicted He
Would Live Ninety-six Years.
London Special
Numbers Of anecdotes have been related con-
corning the Emperor William during his long
life, but the best one, illustrating his superst-
ton, is worth repeating. 1t is to the effect that
at the time of the Fuerstenstag at Frankfort, in
1868, King William was one day walking in the
neighborhood of Baden Baden, accompanied by
Herr Won Bismarck and number of ladies and
gentlemen. Passing a gypsy hut one of the
ladies said: "Fhis is where the famous gypsy
girl Preciosa tells fortunes" The party, all in
walking-dress, entered the hut and had their
fortunes told. The King whose identity was
concealed, coming last
"Preciosa" held his hand a long while in
silence, and then said: II see great crown,
great victories and great age. You will live
ninety years, but your last days will bring to
many trouble and much SORROW"
The King forgot all about the prophecy till in
1854, when at a ball at the Russian embassy in
Berlin the Hungarian Countess Erdody, whose
mother was gypsy woman, was presented to
him. During conversation it was mentioned
that the Countess had the gift of chiromancy.
The Emperor held out his hand, and the Coun-
tess, after examining the lines, gravely said:
Your Majesty is destined to live ninety six
years.
The Emperor was much struck by the coin
cidence. According to the Vienna Tageblatt,
ply sieians have declared that the Emperor has
| no organic failing. and that there is nothing to
prevent him from attaining the age OF l00 pro-
vided he takes care of himself, but this is just
| what he does notdo.
According to authentic statistics, there are at
| present in the kingdom of Prussia no less than
| 5000 persons over ninety years of age; 600 of
| them are ten years older than the Emperor. In
! all parts of Prussia there are plenty OF people
has v,~
| to be found in Posen, Silesia and East and West
| Prussia

MEXICAN TRADE RELATIONS.

The Administration Attacked Because Of Its
Partially for Americans.
CRY OF MEXICO, March 2a-One section of

istraton the ground that it favors too
strongly American interests, giving special en-
couragement to the construction of railway lines

Complaint is made that in the new tariff the re-

heavy, and will cause damage to the manufact-

American influence in the commerce of the
